"The is not only a wonderful opportunity for the Silver Knights players to showcase themselves in front of the Red Sox Baseball Operations staff but also a chance to play at LeLacheur Park."
The game will represent the first look at the 2013 Spinners, whose roster is in the final stages of construction following the conclusion of the 2013 First-Year Player Draft. The Spinners kick-off their season on Wednesday, June 19th and this game serves as a tune-up before their season.
